BA declined it 2 times when I contacted them directly (even though it was a slam dunk).
The whole compensation system needs an EU controlled "compensation center" that would oversee every flight delayed over 3hrs or cancelled.
It's now too easy for airlines to decline the payment with excuses. Many people just leave it there and don't pursue the compensation.
Edit:
Oh and of course now that it didn't even reach CAA or Court, the 150€ felt a bit hefty. But it is what it is.
